8. IF THE INVERTER FUSE BLOWS
Your power inverter is fitted with a fuse, which should not have to be replaced
under normal operating conditions. A blown fuse is usually caused by reverse
polarity or a short circuit within the device or equipment being operated.
If the fuse does blow, take the inverter to a qualified technician for repair.
